INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
82PH0-74E
Pull out the oil dipstick, wipe oil off with a
clean cloth, insert the dipstick all the way
into the engine, then remove it again. The
oil on the stick should be between the MAX
and MIN limits shown on the stick. If the oil
level indication is near the lower limit, add
enough oil to raise the level to the upper
limit. Refilling
82PM07001
Remove the oil filler cap and pour oil slowly
through the filler hole to bring the oil level
to the upper limit on the dipstick. Be careful
not to overfill. Too much oil is almost as
bad as too little oil. After refilling, start the
engine and allow it to idle for about a min-
ute. Stop the engine, wait about 5 minutes
and check the oil level again.
Changing Engine Oil and Filter
Drain the engine oil while the engine is still
warm.

NOTICE
Failure to check the oil level regularly
could lead to serious engine trouble
due to insufficient oil.
NOTICE
Do not top up the oil over the MAX
limit. Too much oil causes serious
engine trouble.
